A month in it seems to be going well. It seems pretty robust and has a soft silicone shell. Our 2.5 year old understood the concept and it has really supported our move from the cot to a full sized bed. She knows that she needs to stay in bed until the clock turns blue, and then in the morning i hear her feet pattering and her shouting breathlessly "the cat turned blue" as she comes to get us. The clock would be improved to 5 stars by two changes 1) a battery percentage/low battery indicator BEFORE it stops backlighting the clock and 2) the ability to set sleep and wakeup times for afternoon naps - i have to fudge it by changing the main clock time otherwise it won't allow us to input a say 1pm to 3pm nap, which is an annoying friction for a sleep deprived parent.
I genuinely love this clock with all my heart. My 3 year old has always been a bit of a nightmare with sleeping and this clock has had such an impact on getting her into bed and calm at night time! She looks forward to seeing her clock turn pink and knows that means we are reading and cuddling quietly. After a couple of weeks she is mostly asleep before it turns orange. Bedtimes have turned from a 1.5/2hour struggle into a pleasant routine! Thankyou so much
If I had one niggle- it would be great to be able to childlock the buttons on the back. She loves the clock so much she likes to walk around with it and sometimes undoes all the settings by knocking the buttons on the back. But it's not too difficult to reset things.
Overall- absolutely excellent and would 1000% recommend
My son has delayed development and learning difficulties so has always struggled to sleep through the night, sleep alone and to a reasonable time. I am blown away by the difference that the zeepy clock has made. He is sleeping right through and until 6am which is a lie in for him! He gets excited when he sees the purple colour on the clock because he knows it’s pj and story time and he understands that he can’t get out of bed until the blue light comes on. Other clocks offer similar displays but without the colour and it’s the colours that have really engaged him. He’s so excited to show me that he’s stayed in bed until the clock turned blue in the morning and is so proud of himself. I would 100% recommend for anyone.
Really useful for helping our little one know when it’s bed time ‘kitty cats asleep’ and more importantly when to wake up and ok to get out of bed.
This has been a game changer for our morning routine - from day 1 he waited in bed for blue cat, and now excitedly calls us through in the morning. No more being called through from 5am asking if it's morning yet!
